Spanning a generous 32 tracks, it marks their first-ever double album and serves as Robert Pollard’s 100th studio effort (!) since 1986’s Forever Since Breakfast. What’s more, August is the first GBV record in the band’s storied history to include contributions from all five members.

Fans got a sneak peek at the record earlier this year with The Who-esque “Hiking Skin”. Pollard and the crew return today with a second offering in “Dr. Feelgood Falls Off The Ocean”, which pleasantly makes use of a snappy drum machine and ringing guitar chords.
